Mental Health?
Defining Mental
Health
Mental health is a state of mental well-
being that enables people to cope
with the stresses of life, realize their
abilities, learn well and work well, and
contribute to their community. It is an
integral component of health and
well-being that underpins our
individual and collective abilities to
make decisions, build relationships
and shape the world we live in.
Mental Health
Program
Mental health programs refer to a range of
initiatives and services aimed at
promoting mental well-being, preventing
mental illnesses, and providing support

Union of Pan Asian
Communities (UPAC)
The Adult & Older Adult Mental Health Programs in San
Diego provide a range of mental health services, including
therapy and medication, with a high success rate in
treating depression. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has
increased anxiety and isolation among older adults,
making it challenging to provide support, especially for
those with limited access to technology and language
barriers. Despite these challenges, the program remains a
lifeline for many seniors, offering vital support and a
human connection.
What do they do?
Our Counseling and Treatment
Center (CTC) provides
supportive services in a safe
and culturally sensitive
environment for individuals who
are experiencing emotional
distress. Services are culturally
and linguistically appropriate in
order to meet the unique needs
that are connected to the
tradition and culture of an
individual.
